An all-encompassing guide to entertaining, amazing, and possibly even educating children, Be the Coolest Dad on the Block provides the perfect excuse to stand on a balloon, play with grated cheese in the microwave, and unroll an entire roll of toilet paper, all in the name of spending time with your kids.
Written by a comedy writer and a cartoonist with thirty years’ combined experience as dads, Be the Coolest Dad on the Block is a cornucopia of practical parenting advice, like how to skip stones or teach a kid to ride a bike. It has answers to the pesky questions kids love, such as “Why is the sky blue?” or “Where do babies come from?” And it can help dads entertain large groups of kids with slapstick gags (“burp the alphabet”) or cool tricks (“the hole in the head”). Be the Coolest Dad on the Block also contains spooky myths for telling around the campfire and loads of quizzes and jokes for rainy days or endless car rides.
With a range of ideas to suit all situations and sensibilities, Be the Coolest Dad on the Block gives any dad the right stuff to be the wackiest and smartest guy in the room.

I found this book extremely entertaining. Cleverly written and chock full of information, games, puzzles and facts that kept me reading and practicing the long lost art of engaging with and entertaining kids. If you would like to have your children put away the Nintendo in favor of some quality time that you will all enjoy, or if you are not a parent but would love to know the secret behind those magic tricks, pick up "Be The Coolest Dad On The Block".

This is a very, very funny but also surprisingly useful book on how to entertain and amaze your little monsters. You might want to read it even if you don't have kids, for self-defense material the next time you're stuck in a room with a bored and complaining child. A perfect present for the dads you know (much better than a tie!).
